No I haven't seen the 'evidence' but it has all of the appearence of a stunt. These things hardly ever go to Court as you must know. I don't know if Barrick has countersued - the problem for them is how do you quantify damages? So they might have to go to court, and IMO it might be a good thing to have the whole thing laid out and disproved. This could be a very expensive suit for Blanchard. In the meantime I notice that Barrick's share price seems to be increasing relative to Newmont - there must be an investment strategy to play - if you want to bet on the gap narrowing further? Maybe we'll see Barrick's share price overtake Newmont's in the next couple of years?

Proved/proven - which branch of the English language do you practice? There is a type of judgement in Scotland known as 'not proven' which means that there was not enough evidence to prove someone guilty, but the inference of guilt is there. I think you're speaking American?
